The paper describes an integtrated sensor system that can selectively and reversibly detect sulfur derivatives in the presence of interferent molecules. This is accomplished by integrating analytespecific sensing materials with optimized filter materials. Microfabricated quartz tuning fork arrays are used to provide fast, accurate and low-cost transduction of the analyte binding events into electronic signals. The concept is demonstrated for detection of three sulfur derivatives -dimethyl disulfide, ethanethiol and methylsulfide.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
